Genuine question - the HN title says "CLI to..." but looking at the GitHub repo I don't see any CLI-centric documentation.

I do see

    $ himalaya envelope list --account posteo --folder Archives.FOSS --page 2
and a screenshot that looks like PINE. Is that screenshot interactive (like PINE) or does himalaya print that out and then the process exits?

I guess my question is: is this different than PINE (or any other terminal-based, interactive email client)?

Himalaya is not interactive: while Pine is a TUI, this is a CLI. Very useful to integrate emails in scripts easily.
The built release packages have full set of man-pages for you to familiarize with.
